Home Habits of His Royal Highness.
 Choice of Clothing.
 At Sandringham the prince breakfasts with his wife and daughters, but at Marlborough house his habits are less regular, and as often as 1not his first meal consists of sardine on toast with cup of coffee, or on occasion-tell it not in Gath "a brandy and soda. This ''smali and early' is partaken of in the airiest of costumes before the dressing room fire, and during its progress his royal high ness sorts and reads his letters. Half the arrangements for the -Cofinderies were made or sanctioned in that cozy little room locking out on the Mall between the nib5ies and sips of the prince's break Fast. 4
 The next business-always an im- portant item with the Prince of Wales is the choice of the suit of clothes he means to wear, and the selection is to him matter of much care. It depends, of course, on the programme for the day. If his diary tells him that he has to open hospital or attend ''heavy" meeting of learned professors or run down to Windsor to see mamma, as he still calls her most gracious majesty, the black f<ock coat with the silk facings, with pair of quiet unmentionables to follow, is the order given to his trusty valet. Should Sandown, or a little luncheon somewhere" with Charley Beresford, be down in the days bill of fare, the latest thing in wonderful chessboard checks is called for, but whatever suit is offered to him the prince is sure to reject if if hoe royal hghness never wears a pair of trousers more than six times. The cast offs become the property of his man, who, it may be judged, has an enviable post.
 AS soon as he is arrayed in purple and fine linen, the prince has Sir Francis Knollys in, and over the first cigar of the day instructs him as to the proper treat ment of the pile of opened letters. Then he makes his way to his wife's morning room, where he is sure to fiEd the princess in the daintiest of morning toilets hard at work on ''crewels," with two of her daughters making wonderful garments for the Sandringham poor, while the third little maid is reading aloud, either from The Times or Morning Post The papers and the screwel work are both laid aside when the prince enters, and when his youngest daughter has brought him the weight carryingeet chair in the room, half an hours chat follows.
 During the season this is all the home life the Marlborough house people have together. Unless he has dinner party at home or some function to attend which entails -rn5-Tresence os his wife and daughters, the prince sees them no more til next moaning. He may look in dur ing the latter hours of the afternoon to get into evening dress, but the o'clock tea which he honors at Sandringham by accounting for four cups of strong Bonea and innumerable sandwiches is honored in the breach at Marlborough house. At the witching hour when suburban danes are busy with their neighbors' character over the teapot, Albert Edward is fulfill ing his mission in the park or finishing his lunch somewhere, or on rare occasions doing penance in the house of lords London Cor.
